Description: iTouch LAT (Local Area Transport) MIB providing SNMP objects for DEC LAT protocol service and node management.

Start monitoring vendor-neutral, standards-based MIB, any SNMPv3-capable network device (SNMP engine identity/boot/clock status) with a free 30-day trial of IPNetwork Monitor. Import MIBs, browse SNMP OIDs, create custom SNMP monitors, configure alerts, and monitor any SNMP-enabled network device from a single console.

What Is ITOUCH-LAT-MIB?

ITOUCH-LAT-MIB is an Allied Telesis iTouch enterprise MIB for managing DEC's Local Area Transport (LAT) protocol, which was used to connect terminals and printers to VAX/VMS and other DEC hosts over Ethernet. It exposes LAT service and node management data, such as available LAT services, connected sessions, and node operational parameters. Its monitoring role is largely software/protocol-level: confirming the LAT service process is advertising correctly and that terminal sessions are established and healthy, rather than reporting physical hardware sensors. It is a vendor extension tied to the DEC LAT protocol stack and is typically used alongside other iTouch protocol MIBs (like the DECnet MIB) on the same device. Deployment context is legacy DEC terminal-server environments providing serial-to-LAT connectivity for VMS/VAX systems, where ITOUCH-LAT-MIB SNMP monitoring would confirm LAT service advertisement stayed healthy.

IPNetwork Monitor allows you to monitor SNMP objects defined in ITOUCH-LAT-MIB. Use the built-in SNMP Monitoring Browser to explore available variables, view their current values and descriptions, and select the objects you want to monitor. You can then create SNMP monitors, configure thresholds, and receive alerts when monitored values change.

Supported Devices

  • iTouch Communications (later Black Box) terminal server (LAT-capable)

Monitoring Examples

An operator would check LAT service advertisement and active session counts to verify that terminal users can still connect to the LAT-served host and that no service has silently stopped advertising. No sample objects were extracted for this module, so exact object names are unconfirmed, but the description implies LAT service/session-oriented objects analogous to a service table and session table. This MIB is primarily useful for spotting LAT service outages rather than general device hardware faults.

What Can Be Monitored

  • LAT service availability
  • active LAT sessions
  • node LAT configuration
  • service advertisement status
